The Burning Issue of the Day

A Lady Hardcastle Mystery, Book 5

De: T E Kinsey

Narrado por: Elizabeth Knowelden

January 1910. A journalist has been killed in a suspicious blaze. Everything points to a group of suffragettes, but the apparent culprit insists she is innocent.

When Lady Hardcastle receives a letter from a suffragette requesting her urgent help, the retired spy turned sleuth knows only she stands between an accused young woman and the gallows. Evidence at the scene makes Lizzie Worrel’s innocence difficult to believe, and with the police treating it as an open-and-shut case of arson, Lady Hardcastle faces a barrage of resistance as she tries to dig out the truth.

With her trusted maid and confidante, the formidable Flo, Lady Hardcastle sets off in pursuit of the truth as time runs out for the accused suffragette. Was she set up? And if so, is the real culprit a traitor to the cause - or part of a darker conspiracy?

Gets better with every installment

Fun, clever, cheerful, enjoyable cosy that soars with stellar narration. 4.5 stars.
This is the first that I have read and used whispersync when not able to hold a Kindle. Made it even better as I could hear EK's voices while reading.

Best Story Yet!

Wonderful storytelling, lively characters and the perfect narrator! I strongly recommend as cannot wait for the next book in the series.

best one so far

Love the mystery, the characters and the history. Very good series. . . . .

Great Characters

I don't really know why I am reading every book in this series. I just want to know what will happen next with the dynamic duo. it may also have something to do with the dry wit between the two. Buy it if you like cozy mysteries.

Splendid Storytelling

I love the colorful characters, and the stories (this was my 5th book). I have trouble putting these books down. They are exciting and hilarious at times. Always entertaining and intriguing.

Love these characters and the narration

I Love these characters and the narration. I wish there were more of these books.

good one.

For a while there I wasn't sure 'whodunnit' - usually Ive figured it out early on. Fun story.

Lady H and Flo ride again!

If you are seeking a new series to enjoy, there are few I would recommend higher than the Lady Hardcastle books. They’ve got everything needed to enjoy a good book - intrigue, intelligent women, a mysterious backstory, a glamorous heroine and a tiny Welsh ninja. What more can you ask for? These are deep enough to keep your brain engaged, funny enough to make you laugh out loud and lighthearted enough to give you a vacation from your normal life. The narrator really brings the books to life and is absolutely perfectly cast. (And these are a wonderful bedtime listen. I suffer from anxiety and occasional sleeplessness and these are the perfect remedy for the anxious thoughts)

I love these books!

these books are Awesome! I listened at every opportunity and hated to turn it off to go to work!

Love, love, love these book. Please write faster!

The characters are wonderful. Funny and clever. I love a character with a smart retort and the two main characters are very entertaining. Plus the story was really good, too.
